Special features of a fishing day: The day has started with quite low temperature for July, +15 C only, though almost without a wind. All bites on bobber was quite weak, even those from big fish. The first one brought a 4 pounds common carp, then some breams and two 7–8 pounds mirror carps. Approx.from 10 am came first thunderstorm with strong wind, which brought some oxygen to the water. Of course, during summer every rain is welcomed due to high water temperature, so this rain supported fish activity in a good way too. After a few small breams we changed position to another lake with grass carps and despite of another thunderstorm got some nice fish from the surface, because it was full of favorite grass carp delicacy – water plants. Finally it was a great day with many nice fish. Client: Nick, Texas, USA
